8 Heppner Gazette Times, July 6, 1944 Why a Farmer Should Buy and Keep War Bonds by Mark T. Buchanan J ding Chairman, Division of Farm Management and Agricultural Economics Slate College of Washington, Pullman, Washington , ".t.'.rTNG the e-rly stages of an y inflationary period a farmer ':orld trlk like a pessimist and act like r.:i opan-ici; He should c;:'.:-::d hiiv.colf by moans of credit ;ind take advantage of the rising price riluation. During the latter part of an in flationary period he should talk like an optimist and act like a pessimist. He should liquidate his debt and put as many inflationary dollars as possible into a fixed investment. No fixed investment is more satisfactory for th;s pur ree than War Bonds of the United Staijs. la addition to laying aside prcs cni: easily obtained money t use v'.rcn it', rurchnning ':ower '.t.3 in vrcasrd, t'-.ora are rcveral other . j.wms w.y f.vmers should buy ''. ?

Prevent InXL'.iioa. This war is costing twice as inueh per year as the total ccct of World Var I. To the extent tl at tho Government can borrow this required money i.om individual out of savings or funds that otherwise would be nTii':ible for living, inflation will he averted. That is why the Gov 0Tv,rvient is much more interested in selling Bonds to Individuals than in selling them to banks. Protection. This country and the war effort have been blessed with six successive years of phenome nal crop yields and agricultural production. If a penny is tossed six times and comes up heads every time, the probability of the seventh toss is still 50-50, heads and tails. Although the succes sion of good crop years does net necessarily portend crop fail ure to come, nevertheless crop failure is always something that should be considered possible. Money invested in War Bonds will provide protection for living ex penses and capital during the dif ficult years. t Safe Investment.- As a rule the paying o:f of the ''mortgage" is a farmer's best investment. Durirg the war years, however, mar.y farmers have accomplished this, ar.d are now scckir.g a safe invest ment for extra cash. No invest ment is safer than the Eond of our Government. Not only is litis investment a -safe one, but the re turns are attractive.. Series E Bonds held for 10 years return in terest of 2.9 per cent, conmounded annually in 10 years $4.00 for each $3.00 put in. Patriotic Motive, Not to be for gotten is the fact that this war must be won. Farmers have mere sons and daughters in the service per family than any other group of our population. We must pro vide them with the pbnes, tanks, guns, ships, ar.d other materials necessary to speed their return home. ,., V. S.
